NASAConstellation -- January 2008 (7/18/2008)

Illustrations of the proposed Constellation Spacesuit System depict different preliminary configurations of the new spacesuit system. On the left, the "initial capability" suit will provide basic pressure suit functions for use inside the Orion spacecraft for launch, entry and on-orbit activities during low-Earth orbit missions to the International Space Station. On the right, the "lunar capability" suit will use core components of the initial capability suit and additional hardware, including a new thermal micro-meteoroid protection garment. It will be the lunar exploration suit for the Constellation Program. In the center, another illustration of the lunar capability suit shows additional equipment and the micrometeoroid outer garment highlighted in blue.
